Haha you never cease to amaze me! I always worry about suggesting Mad Men to people because the first like 5 or 6 eps are reallyyyy tough to get hooked on, I personally felt like I wasn't hooked until I found out about Don's real identity. Sopranos I was hooked right away, mafia stuff is such an easy sell for me. Plus the show was filmed in my hometown and surrounding towns made it even easier.

I also enjoyed Simmons trying to prove some weird theory about how Marcus Smart does all these things you can't see on TV and that's what makes him good, and Redick was like "No it's pretty obvious what makes him good"

Lol the constant referencing of Janice’s poor cooking skills is so great. Also AJ provides so much comic relief in seasons 3 and 4, like when Tony starts questioning him about whether he was out in the yard in the last few days and AJ is just like “Alright I’m going upstairs”. Or when Tony takes him to Newark to show him a church that’s been standing for hundreds of years that was built by Italians, meanwhile the other buildings in the area are falling apart, and Tony asks AJ why he thinks the church is still standing. AJ thinks for a minute and goes, “The bricks?” Also just how generally grumpy he is about having to do anything at all, like when Carmella takes him to Furio’s house a few times. “Why am I always having to come here?”

[MEDIA] I’m truly going to enjoy watching the rest of the world move on without us. That’s what these America First dipshits don’t understand. Someone will fill that void and hopefully it’s a group of sensibly minded countries. But no surprise that a toddler president is acting like a toddler to the rest of the world.

That's a pretty interesting way to look at things and how I feel when a band like Brand New will pop up on shuffle. I can aesthetically enjoy it or connect it to old personal memories but I can't "lose myself" in it anymore without playing dumb to the fact that an abuser made the art.
